EWS

I believe they are Bomar 3530's

they can always be deflected to the primaries

he moved the boat back east when his family relocated

if it's a short sprit consider a fixed attachment point. If it's more traditional look into going 2:1 with it

thought I was going to have to do the same but after blasting the base of the mast on my 105 it cleaned up nicely and nothing was needed

apples and oranges

Unfortunately I don't believe SF has seen the potential yet of a well sailed FT10. No offense to the owners up there but the one you are using in your results has never sailed in a OD event. The level that the upper ends of the fleet sail at in SoCal and the PNW are more on par with what eightball did in your example. Really doesn't make much sense to compare the boats unless you have equally talented teams. Not to knock any of the boats I think the J/111 is a great boat.

keep in mind we have a 3 rating system in SoCal. The delta between the bouy rating and the offwind rating is greater depending on the downwind potential of the boat. The J/111 was given a provisional temporary random leg rating for this race only since it doesn't have an approved rating yet. If the boat ends up rating 30 Random Leg then it most likely would have a rating in the 36-39ish region for bouy. I believe this was also the owners first race.

What is happening in a few days? Is this the 1D35 Turbo EWS is eluding to? The story is featured on the SA home page this AM. Cool project... https://picasaweb.go...kgE&feat=email# But didn't the J111 KONTIKI 5 beat the 1D35 REVOLUTION in Key West (albeit the 111 had a 42 vs the 1D's 36 PHRF)this year? Rag Bag's 111 is rating 36 here in SF...not sure what a 1D35's PHRF is here... According to norcal phrf 36 with sym 42 with assy There were two 1D35s in last weekend Corintian Midwinters, one rated 36 (standard) and one rated 21. Neither one hung with the 111 o

the boat has been rated at 33/27/18 in Socal without the square top main & 30/24/12 with the square top. Didn't mean to derail the J/111 thread so please continue on

It would be the 1D35 Turbo.....few days and it will all make sense

ya but I had to mute it after about the second "puff on".....I'd be searching for that button if I was on the boat

keel bolt backing plates cut away....stainless tube runs to the deck with an internal G10 rod....pretty standard practice these days

A vertical to near vertical foil is always going to catch kelp regardless of the bulb style. You can restrict it's use during OD events but to race that thing in SD PHRF events without one is not going to help their phrf game much. Might as well not even leave the dock.

It's called a kelp cutter....welcome to San Diego

It appears that the cheapest you can get one on the water with little to no options is around $285,000 with a basic sail inventory. Factor in your sales tax and it's over $300,000. This is bare bones minimum from what I have seen.

Fun day but not a big boat or ULDB day for sure. Congrats to the winners.

hasn't been the most exciting race pressure wise but it's great to see how this one has unfolded. Lotta talent out there....a little luck....and some hail mary's. The 125's are a weapon. Good luck guys.

good luck up there you guys......heading down to the boat soon to throw on some extra lines. Surprisingly enough the boat rides out the big breeze fairly well on the hydrohoist

Paul, Lets do it...I'm down. To really sweeten the deal I could talk to SBYC to see if they could get us a OD start for the Fiesta Cup the weekend prior although I know it may be tough for the out of towners. Did it this year with the Farr 40's and SBYC really throws a great event. Beach party afterwards, live band, free beer.....perfect Santa Barbara weather. It's a OD regatta and this year they hosted the Farr 40's, J105's, and Melges 24's. Great venue.
